This is good. But for completness please use this

B4X:

Sub GetSDKversion() As String
Try
    Dim versions As Map
    versions.Initialize
    versions.Put(1,"1.0 BASE")
    versions.Put(2,"1.1 BASE_1_1")
    versions.Put(3,"1.5 CUPCAKE")
    versions.Put(4,"1.6 DONUT")
    versions.Put (5,"2.0 ECLAIR")
    versions.Put (6,"2.0.1 ECLAIR_0_1")
    versions.Put(7,"2.1 ECLAIR_MR1")
    versions.Put(8,"2.2 FROYO")
    versions.Put (9,"2.3 GINGERBREAD")
    versions.Put(10,"2.3.3 GINGERBREAD_MR1")
    versions.Put(11,"3.0 HONEYCOMB")
    versions.Put(12,"3.1 HONEYCOMB_MR1")
    versions.Put(13,"3.2 HONEYCOMB_MR2")
    versions.Put(14,"4.0 ICE_CREAM_SANDWICH")
    versions.Put(15,"4.0.3 ICE_CREAM_SANDWICH_MR1")
    versions.Put(16,"4.1 JELLY_BEAN")
    versions.Put(17,"4.2 JELLY_BEAN_MR1")
    versions.Put(18,"4.3 JELLY_BEAN_MR2")
    versions.Put(19,"4.4 KITKAT")
    versions.Put(20,"4.4w KITKAT_WATCH")
    versions.Put(21,"5.0 LOLLIPOP") 
    versions.Put(22,"5.1 LOLLIPOP_MR1")'it is important that the last element should be the heigher sdk version available
    Dim p As Phone
    Dim api As Int = p.SdkVersion
    Dim vers As String = versions.Get(api)
    If api>versions.GetKeyAt (versions.Size -1) Then 'or If api>versions.Size Then 'version size should have all the elements in this case
          Log("A newer API is installed (api=" &api &"). Please update 'GetSDKVersion' function")
        Log ("Check this link: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html")
        Return api
    End If
    Return vers
Catch
    Log(LastException)
    Return "error"
End Try
End Sub

Hope it helps

Sorry, I did't know of that post. But see that in my code a test for a newer api is also taking place.

AscySoft · Mar 10, 2015

Editet with the latest api release, 22

Thank you for the info. Will update the methods

When I use your code, I get an error:

Does anyone have an idea?

You are doing something wrong. Can you post your GetSdkVersion sub?

JOTHA · Mar 5, 2018

Hello Erel,
thank you for your answer.

Here is the Sub:

B4X:

Sub GetSDKversion() As String

Try
    
    Dim versions As Map
    versions.Initialize

    versions.Put(10, "2.3.3")
    versions.Put(11, "3.0")
    versions.Put(12, "3.1")
    versions.Put(13, "3.2")

    versions.Put(21, "5.0p")
    versions.Put(22, "5.0")

        Return api
    End If
    
    Msgbox("Android-Version: "&GetSDKversion&"", "")
    
    Return vers
    
Catch
    Log(LastException)
    Msgbox("Android-Version: "&LastException&"", "")
    Return "error"
End Try

'    Log("-- 30488 -- SDKversion: "&GetSDKversion&" --")
'
'    Msgbox("Android-Version: "&GetSDKversion&"", "")
'    Return versions.Get(p.SdkVersion)
    
End Sub

I call the Sub by clicking a button like this:
GetSDKversion

DonManfred · Mar 5, 2018

Updated th e Sub to 27. Also the sub to get the name...

JOTHA · Mar 5, 2018

I made an example attached as ZIP-File.
It doesn't work.

Here is the Log-File:

Sorry ...

REMOVE the recursive call to GetSDKversion inside the Sub GetSDKversion!

And change the code in your button click to

B4X:

Sub Button1_Click
   
    Log(GetSDKversion)
   
End Sub

JOTHA · Mar 5, 2018

Thank you very much, DonManfred!
Now it works.
